Visited on May 6, 2023, Location: A 15-minute walk from Shinzaki Station, Reservation available online, made 1 month in advance, No walk-ins, Number of people: 4, Cost: ¥12,000 per person, Orders: Kimchi assortment, Wagyu tongue and hump yakiniku, Nohara-yaki (grilled egg), Chateaubriand cutlet, A5 Wagyu sushi, Roast beef rice, Curry rice, Adult cocoa chocolate ice cream with vanilla and strawberry milk, Notes: Yakiniku restaurant in Shinzaki. About a 15-minute walk from Shinzaki Station on the Toei Shinjuku Line, or a 20-minute walk from Mizue Station on the same line. Recommended to take a bus or taxi due to the distance from both stations. Established in 1988. This Shinzaki branch is the main store of Yakiniku Jumbo, with other branches in Shirogane, Hongou, and Hanare. Known for their meat cutting technique and secret sauce. Nohara-yaki is a must-try. The style is mainly self-grilling, but the staff will teach you how to cook the meat properly, so no worries. Some meats like Nohara-yaki are cooked by the staff. No regular holidays, open irregularly. Reservations are only accepted online through Table Check. The restaurant has 32 seats with tables and tatami seating but no private rooms. Private bookings are negotiable. Credit cards accepted. No dedicated parking lot.

I finished a big project the other day, so I decided to treat myself to some delicious food here. I called ahead the day before and was told they had availability at 5 PM, so I finished work early on a weekday, took a 1.5-hour train ride from my workplace, and walked about 10 minutes - it was almost like a little trip. I had a light soba lunch around 11 AM to prepare my stomach, so I arrived full of energy and immediately ordered a beer. The exterior of the restaurant had a truly traditional feel, and the name "Jumbo" in katakana was also nice. It seems there are several branches, and the Shinzaki branch is the main one. I ordered a few dishes, and first up was the premium black wagyu tongue. When serving the meat at this restaurant, the staff announce, "Please enjoy after searing one side for a few seconds." It wasn't too formal, more like a casual recommendation. So I dug in. (I think they seared one side for about 20 seconds). I had read in reviews that this tongue dish costs ¥3,800 even though it only comes with 4 slices. I had to taste it for myself, and after searing each side for 20 seconds, the thick slices of wagyu tongue were rare and tender. Delicious. I usually prefer thinner slices of tongue, but this thick cut was incredibly tasty. There are both premium black wagyu tongue and regular tongue on the menu, but you can only order one per table. It's expensive, but I highly recommend the premium tongue. It was truly delicious. Next was the Yabuhara-yaki, thinly sliced sirloin that you dip in beaten raw egg - a guaranteed tasty treat. This restaurant seems to be the originator of this style of eating, and I felt a bit embarrassed as I ate, thinking, "Ah, this is just like that feeling when I ate at that other place." The fat wasn't overwhelming at all, and it went down smoothly. The most delicious were the heart and the loin. Both were more melt-in-your-mouth than anything I had tried before. I could just stick with these two. It's worth coming here for the heart and loin alone. The Tomosankaku was seared for about 4 seconds on each side, but it was more like fatty tuna than meat. Delicious. Finally, the omelette rice to finish. It was a traditional-style omelette rice with chunky tomato-based ketchup and meat. Not your average tasty. I tried various other dishes as well. The restaurant had a clean atmosphere, and the staff were brisk and very good. It's still quite expensive and not easy to visit often, but I would like to come back. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal.

Jumbo was founded by the late Ryuji Minamihara. Originally a café called "Kinomi," it was transformed into Jumbo when he took over the yakiniku restaurant from his mother and changed the business model. Minamihara, a legend in Tokyo's yakiniku scene, introduced innovative approaches such as serving rare cuts, omelette rice and curry as a nod to the café's origins, and a sukiyaki-style sirloin steak cooked with egg yolk (Nohara-yaki). Today, the restaurant is run by the second generation, carrying on the secret sauce and high-quality cutting techniques passed down through generations. The atmosphere is down-to-earth, with a 24-hour TV show featuring celebrities running marathons. I ordered oolong tea as I arrived by car. We ordered Nohara-yaki, kalbi, tongue with salt, lean triangle, marbled triangle, cold noodles, extra rice, and pudding for two people. The thinly sliced Nohara-yaki, lean triangle, and marbled triangle were cooked for 4 seconds on each side as requested. The kalbi, cut thick, was cooked for 30 seconds. Delicious. Ah, this must be the secret sauce, with a traditional flavor. The pudding for dessert had a nostalgic old-fashioned texture and was delicious. The bill came to 19,450 yen for two people, 9,725 yen each. Thank you for the meal. The parking lot is diagonally across the street from the restaurant, but it was quite narrow with only enough space for small cars, yet mostly occupied by large vehicles like Crowns and Benzes. Be careful when parking.

I came to the famous yakiniku restaurant Jumbo for the first time, and it was absolutely amazing. Everything I tried was delicious, and reserving the fillet meat clay pot rice was a great decision! Even though it's listed for 3-4 people, it was so delicious that two of us easily finished it. The signature Nohara-yaki was also incredibly tasty, with the misuji meat melting in my mouth, making me almost cry. I definitely want to eat here again!

I visited Jumbo Shinozaki Main Store, located about a 15-minute walk from Shinzaki Station. The parking lot is conveniently located right near the shop. Climbed up the spiral staircase to the second floor. Even though our reservation was for 4:00 pm, the restaurant was fully booked. ◾️Ordered Menu・Black Wagyu Upper Tongue: Thick and chewy. Excellent! Disappointed that you can only order one serving of regular tongue or upper tongue. I wanted more tongue.・Sirloin: Ordered for two, but the first serving had plenty of marbling. The refill was leaner than the first serving.・Harami・Yukke-style diced roast beef: Slightly rare, excellent with egg. Irresistible when eaten on rice. Will definitely order again.・Crunchy Cucumber: Sesame oil and garlic add a nice touch.・Half-size Egg Soup・Nohara-yaki: Jumbo's signature Nohara-yaki. Melts in your mouth when mixed with egg.・Chateaubriand Cutlet Stew: Secret menu. Chateaubriand cutlet stew was a luxurious treat. Very delicious, but felt a bit wasteful to have it as a stew. Next time, I'll just have the Chateaubriand as is!・Seared Wagyu Sushi: Staff sears it rare right in front of you. Delicious! Will definitely order again.・Special Pudding from the Main Store: I usually don't order dessert, but Jumbo's pudding is so good, I couldn't resist! The kids loved it too!◾️ImpressionsThere was a minor issue with only one side of the grill lighting up at first, but overall, everything was delicious. Unfortunately, the limited edition hamburger was not available this time. I would like to try it next time.

I revisited Yakiniku Jumbo Honten because I was craving the hatsu-shio (beef heart salt) and rosu (beef loin) I had during Golden Week. This time, I took a bus from Koiwa, which took longer than from Minami-Kasai, but the view of the shopping street raised my excitement. It's nice that the bus stop is right in front of the restaurant! Of course, I ordered beer, hatsu-shio, and rosu right away. They were amazing! Since you can only order one type of tongue, I went with the regular tongue salt this time. It was a bit light but still delicious. The kalbi and harami were also tasty, but I was surprised by how juicy the mino (beef tripe) was. I had it last time too, but today's was even better. It's definitely the best mino I've ever had. I will make sure to order it again next time. Thank you for the meal today as well! *I wish they had changed the grill...* Price: - Hatsu-shio ¥1,350 - Regular tongue salt ¥2,500 - Rosu ¥1,500 - Kalbi ¥1,500 - Harami ¥2,300 - Mino sandwich ¥1,450 - Liver steak ¥1,500 - Premium mino ¥1,200 - Hormone ¥1,200 - Crunchy cucumber ¥450 - Cold noodles ¥1,650 - Asahi Jukusen draft beer (medium) @720 - Highball @630 - Lemon sour @580

It's been a while since my last visit! This restaurant is still great except for its location. However, the difficulty in getting there compared to other jumbo restaurants makes it easier to get a reservation, so that's also a good thing. Since there aren't many taxis around, taking a taxi back is a good idea, while taking the bus to get there is a safe bet. The staff are cheerful and provide smooth service, the Namul Kimchi at the beginning is delicious, and the meat is definitely top-notch!!! Everyone will surely smile when they come to this jumbo restaurant. What's amazing about this place is that they put effort into their side dishes as well, and they are all delicious. I love the omurice! Anyway, it's always a super satisfying yakiniku restaurant!

Jumbo in Hongo is famous, but the main store is in Shinozaki. The access is quite difficult, and it was already full by 18:30. It's truly a popular restaurant, so it's almost impossible to enter without a reservation. We ordered the following: ◎ Black Wagyu tongue ◎ Wild-grilled meat ⚪ Kimchi assortment ⚪ Harami ⚪ Misuji ⚪ White intestine sashimi ⚪ Cold noodles. The tongue and wild-grilled meat were especially delicious. You can only order one serving of tongue, no additional orders allowed. Considering the cost performance and location, there are many popular restaurants, but it was great to enjoy the Jumbo main store, which can be said to have ignited the yakiniku boom.

I was taken to this renowned restaurant by my senior. It goes without saying that there are no misses here. Everything is a hit. The filet steak, heart, tongue... everything was fantastic. Especially, if I had to pick one, it would be the famous "Nohara-yaki". You cannot leave without trying this.

I visited the restaurant on Friday at 5:00 PM with a reservation! It was easy to make a reservation even at the last minute. The interior was smaller than I expected, and when we arrived at 5:00 PM, there were already about three groups dining. We don't drink alcohol, so we focused on ordering soft drinks and food. Our orders included dishes like Yabu-hara yaki with raw egg, black wagyu top tongue misji, Shinshin kata-sankaku aburi wagyu nigiri harami, kimchi assortment, vegetable salad, Komtangkuppa (half), ginger ale x2, and oolong tea. The total bill for two people was around 25,000 yen. It took less than an hour. A family who arrived later left before us, so the turnover seems to be quite fast. Since it was my first visit, I ordered mostly from the recommended menu today, but next time, I would like to try dishes from the regular menu. They have parking available with space for about four cars nearby!

Today was our second yakiniku spot, so we kept it light♪ The menu we ordered included Taketsuru highball, Rosu shinchin nohara yaki (1 piece), Chateaubriand 120g, Wagyu nigiri (2 pieces), vegetable salad, curry omurice, salt udon, aosa seaweed soup. The red meat was top quality♡ The Chateaubriand is priced per gram and seems to vary depending on the day. For dessert, we shared and ordered three different items. The salt udon had a seafood-based broth with mashed mushrooms and was tastier than expected. The curry was mild without much spiciness. Jumbo-san has several locations, but it was my first time visiting the main store♡ It's a bit far from the city, but it was worth the visit. Thank you for the meal.

Hello, this is Sapio. The taste that makes your taste buds go crazy! A dining experience where I couldn't stop raving about the sukiyaki-style seasoned "Nohara-yaki" and the main store exclusive hamburger! Today, I will introduce "Yakiniku Jumbo Shinzaki Honten," a restaurant known for establishing the era of Heisei yakiniku. I heard that this yakiniku restaurant offers a wild and impactful flavor without being pretentious, so I decided to visit. I was able to make a reservation for a Sunday about 2 weeks in advance through their website. Surprisingly, the competition for reservations wasn't that high. The menu I ordered included Nohara-yaki, Uchimomo, roasted wagyu nigiri, 100% wagyu premium hamburger, Negi Shio Tan Karubi, Galbi, Hormone, etc., with a budget of around 9000 yen per person. Since I've been eating ramen mostly and haven't had a proper yakiniku dining experience, I went all out on ordering meat. Without paying attention to kimchi or salad, I focused solely on the meat. The Nohara-yaki, seasoned with sukiyaki sauce, left the biggest impression on me. The fusion of meat fat, sauce, and that egg... divine. The hamburger had the best seasoning and texture... This might be the best hamburger I've ever had in my life. The Nohara-yaki and hamburger were so delicious that I almost forgot about indulging in ramen at the famous "Ramen Katsu" in Shinzaki on the way back. This was truly an unusual behavior for someone who loves ramen so much... That's how delicious it was! It was delicious, but since I ordered mostly meat, especially parts with higher fat content, I felt a bit overwhelmed towards the end. I realized that I should have ordered more salad or soup... It was tasty, but considering that I usually eat only ramen, I keenly felt that it was quite expensive. However, I think if I had been more strategic with my order, my satisfaction level would have been even higher. I would like to revisit when I have improved my yakiniku literacy a bit more. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

Jumbo Honten, a yakiniku restaurant with branches in Hongo Sanchome and Shirogane, is a bit hard to get to as it takes over 20 minutes to walk from Shinzaki Station. Despite the somewhat inconvenient location, my partner and I make it a tradition to come here every year on our anniversary. The yakiniku is a must-try, and we always end our meal with their delicious curry.

I finally got to go to Jumbo, a restaurant with a 3-month waiting list for reservations. The meat sushi was thick and had a good texture, and the roast beef and sukiyaki-style dishes were delicious. I also bought curry as a souvenir. The cold noodles were also very tasty. The beef tongue was sold out, so I had the heart instead, which also had a memorable taste. It was a restaurant where I could understand why it's so popular. Thank you for the wonderful meal.

I finally got to visit the long-awaited Yakiniku Jumbo! Their specialty Nohara-yaki is meat dipped in sauce and carefully grilled by the staff, then served with egg 🈯️ Delicious tongue, tripe, and liver, all offering fresh meat! The appetizers are also exquisite! Especially the raw liver sashimi with its crunchy texture is irresistible! The Yukkejang soup is packed with umami amid its spiciness! Their unique omurice is a specialty not commonly found in yakiniku restaurants, so I highly recommend it! It's difficult to make a reservation, but I definitely want to go again!

The well-known yakiniku restaurant, Yakiniku Jumbo's Shinzaki Main Store, which I thought was a bit difficult to access, can actually be reached by bus from Minami-Kasai Station ❗ What's more, being able to make reservations online is a plus ⤴️⤴️ I made a reservation right away (⁠◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕⁠✿⁠) The restaurant isn't very spacious, but you don't feel stressed by the neighboring seats. It's nice to be able to get advice on cooking times for each meat from the brisk staff. The must-order dishes like Nohara-yaki and the delicious tongue are a given ❗ My favorites are the heart salt and loin ❗ The heart is definitely the best in my life ⤴️⤴️ The perfectly thick loin seems to double the deliciousness (⁠*⁠˘⁠︶⁠˘⁠*⁠)⁠.⁠｡⁠*⁠♡ There are no misses in any menu, and before you know it, you're reaching for another draft beer. Before you know it, you're overeating on white rice and cold noodles... Ah, it was delicious ⤴️ Very satisfied (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)⤴️ I also like the old-fashioned atmosphere... This is how a yakiniku restaurant should be ❗ If I had to say one thing... I wish they had offered tea or even just water after the meal... I felt a bit hesitant to ask (I should have asked. I'm sorry) I will visit again.

Fifth stop on a food tour in the Koiwa area. It feels luxurious to use Jumbo Yakiniku's main store as the second stop. With so many places visited, we ordered just a little. Assorted kimchi, black wagyu tongue, sagari, and liver. The staff kindly taught us the best way to cook the wagyu tongue - 16 seconds on one side. It turns out delicious without fail! Sagari is cooked for one minute on each side. Lately, I love harami and sagari the most. The sagari with just the right amount of fat and thickness is incredibly delicious! Liver is best when cooked medium rare. The thick liver releases more flavor as you chew. It was our fifth visit, but we enjoyed the meal. Finally made it to the headquarters of Yakiniku Jumbo.

Jumbo Honten is a popular restaurant even though there is nothing around the shop to kill time, and it is far from the 3rd station! Perhaps due to its location, the main store is relatively easy to make reservations even on the day of. The meat at Jumbo is all well-marbled, so I can't eat as much as I used to. I tried the hamburger for the first time, and it was super delicious!! It's a must-try dish if it's not available every day!! Despite the size of the restaurant, there are many staff members, and the speed and timing of service were impeccable. Thank you for the meal.

It's my first visit in 2 years since the self-restraint due to the pandemic. Started with hatsu, then had yakiniku, rosu, kalbi, harami, liver, pork kalbi, and more. There was white intestine. The sushi of the day was in a triangular shape. The regular rosu and hatsu were exceptionally delicious. We had a great time with 5 friends, ordering freely, and finished with curry and omurice before parting ways. Personally, I prefer grilling and eating rare by myself.

I recommend this restaurant to those who want to enjoy tender and melt-in-your-mouth meat. Personally, the combination of the roast and grilled egg on the side was particularly delicious. The uncooked meat, roast beef, was a bit tough, but overall, the meat was very tasty and satisfying.
